As more migrants and refugees from outside Europe arrive in member states, the provision of language courses and citizenship courses to support the integration in the host societies, and access to work, education and essential services becomes a burning priority.

Adult migrants | Quality assurance in language and citizenship courses

This offer is targeted at managers of institutions providing language and citizenship courses for migrants and/or directors of such courses, as well as policy and decision makers and provides:

• training courses and workshops that can be replicated flexibly after the life of the project
• materials and tools to support training, quality assurance and quality development in this field.

ECML experts with extensive experience of quality assurance and quality development in language education will provide supportive guidance and could enable stakeholders to take a fresh and more objective look at the quality and effectiveness of provisions. This team will work with national authorities and local experts to devise and implement in-country activities, tailored to the particular context and target audience.
